Social media activist Thisara Anurudhdha Bandara, a leading voice of the recent peaceful protests against the government, has been abducted by a group who had claimed themselves to be Modara Police and raided his house at midnight yesterday (02). The abductors were in plain clothes at the time of his abduction.
